VIZ GRAPHIC NOVEL
NO NEED FOR TENCHI!
Science fiction comedy based on the anime series from Pioneer, as seen on the Cartoon Network! It all started when high school student Tenchi freed the alien pirate Ryoko from her captivity on Earth. Soon enough, her friends and enemies showed up: alien princess Ayeka, mad scientist Washu, ditzy space cop Mihoshi... Surrounded by beautiful, feuding alien women, poor Tenchi is either the luckiest or the most miserable boy on Earth!
184 PAGES OF HEARTBREAK!
When her childhood nanny lies dying, Mihoshi remembers the one thing the old woman always wanted: "I want to see you in your wedding dress one day!" The next thing she knows, she's rushing off to nanny's bedside with her "fiancé" Tenchi at her side, and Ryoko and Ayeka are in a panic! Then, Ayeka mysteriously vanishes on the day of a strange earthquake, only to return as a ruthless killer! Can her old friends undo her amnesia and turn her back to the way she was, or will this volume contain a wedding - and a funeral?!
This is a delightful series with a lot to recommend it. First and foremost are the characters who are uniformly attractive and who are surprisingly deep for people who inhabit the crazy Tenchi universe... populated with all kinds of weird and wonderful ideas... No Need for Tenchi! is a first-class comedy-drama science fiction series... Highly recommended."
